   Hallo August,

   AA> If I recall correctly, auto-updates only work when there are DIFFs.   
      
   No, auto-updating as a diff is an option.   
   For example, I also have the fsxNet nodelist auto-updated and there I     
   don't get diffs.   
      
   My "nodelist list" looks like this:   
      
   Z2PNT.###     064  Z2PNT.###     Z2PNT.Z##           FD-Pointliste   
   NODELIST.###  064  NODEDIFF.###  NODEDIFF.Z##  Diff  Nodeliste   
   FSXNET.###    071  FSXNET.###    FSXNET.Z##          Nodeliste   
   tqwnet.###    057  TQWNET.###    TQWNET.Z##          Nodeliste   
      
   Only the FidoNet NODELIST.### is in diff-form, all the other nodelists are     
   full updates.   
   And Z2PNT and FSXNET do work, only tqwnet.### does not work.   
      
   The FSXNET entry is configured like this:   
      
   Listenname        FSXNET.###        Nummer  071   
   Listenformat      Nodeliste   
   Update-Datei      FSXNET.###   
   Update-Archiv     FSXNET.Z##   
   [ ]   Update als Diff einbinden   
      
   (Whereas NODELIST.### has [x] Update as diff)

   Thank you.   
      
   All my nodelist networks send new files with uppercase filenames, only     
   tqwNet uses lowercase.   
      
   Regards,
